MG MG Y Type - Y gearbox

Gents,
I have come across from the TD site looking for answers to the question of which gearbox I have in my TD (1950).
Are there pictures available of the Y box? I would like to look at them to compare.

The box I have does not have the locating point for the TD exhaust mounting (on side)and it has a modified bracket to secure the box to the rear mount. As I understand it the TD has a cast unit onto which the rear mount locates. Also this box had a reverse light switch mounted on the left hand side of the box standard not the TD plug.

So I don't think it is a TD box but not sure what it is.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards
Bill C.

You don't happen to be in Adelaide? If so you could look at a spare Y gearbox I have laying around.
